Chapter 82 Night Walker
Little Liu was startled and stopped crying immediately. She didn't dare to pretend anymore: "No, I didn't. I definitely won't let her in!"
The village chief said: "It would be better this way!"
He left angrily.
Several people in the big room over there were also walking silently, with extremely complicated feelings, and they didn't know what to say for a moment.
Until the twins tugged at Madam Lin's clothes and whispered, "Mother, I'm hungry."
Madam Lin suddenly came back to her senses and said, "Yes, Xinbaoer must be hungry too. Faner, go downstairs and buy some buns."
Brother Tang also came back to his senses.
It was already past dinner time and no one had eaten lunch yet. Brother Tang was always a good person. These villagers had been working hard all day, so he went straight to a small restaurant nearby and invited Tang Lizheng and a few others to come in and sit down to eat.
Several people from the Tang family sat at the same table. Madam Lin touched her daughter's head and said, "Xinbaoer, are you hungry? Would you like some porridge?"
Xinbao shook her head and didn't even have the energy to speak. Her big dark eyes were dull and lifeless. She was obviously very tired, but she was trying hard not to fall asleep and just lay on her father's shoulder. Madam Lin wanted to take her back and hug her, but she refused.
She could only touch her daughter's head and said softly, "Xinbaoer, if you feel sleepy, why don't you just fall asleep for a while and eat when you wake up?"
Xinbao still shook his head.
The second brother came over, lifted her little chin, fed her a few sips of water, and said, "Xinbaoer, how about this, you coax daddy, and then everything will be fine and you can go to sleep, okay?"
Xinbao can do it just by thinking about it.
She perked up a little, thought about it seriously, then raised her chubby little hand, placed it on her father's head, patted it gently, and said softly: "Little baby, eat rice, eat until you are full, grow fat, and don't drop rice grains on the ground!"
Tang Qingshan listened quietly and said, "Okay, you can go to sleep now."
Xinbao put her little hand on Lin's head again and sang the whole song in a serious manner. Then Brother Tang noticed it and quickly put his head under his sister's little hand...
Xinbao was so sleepy that he could not speak clearly and was staggering from side to side, but he kept his eyes open and touched the twins one by one. Finally, he felt relieved and fell asleep with his little head tilted.
Tang Qingshan gently touched the little girl's hair.
Although it was very childish, he really felt comforted.
The villagers who had been watching nearby couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's said that a daughter is a father's little cotton-padded jacket! Just looking at her makes me feel warm in my heart."
"Xinbao is so obedient. If it were my daughter, she would have been exhausted long ago. You don't know how much trouble it would be...Xinbao even comforted her parents."
Some people also advised him: "Brother Qingshan, don't think too much. Fortunately, the jackal can't harm you now. You have a lucky little star like Xin Baoer. Your life will definitely get better and better... How did you say that?"
“After all the hardship comes happiness!”
"Yes, the bitter ones have gone in, and the good ones are coming soon!"
Tang Qingshan just nodded.
He has always been a taciturn person, so no one thought it was a big deal, but they couldn't help but start talking about it.
What happened today had such a huge impact on them, and the farmers were not very considerate and didn't think of taking their feelings into consideration. They kept talking while eating.
Not only them, but also the onlookers found it unbelievable, and the news soon spread all over the city.
Xinbao is really tired.
I received so much information in a day that I was exhausted. I fell into a deep sleep when I got home and didn’t wake up until dark.
Then Madam Lin whispered to her eldest son, and then Brother Tang came in and said, "Dad, why don't you come over to the east wing and sleep with Xinbao, or he might make a fuss when he wakes up at night."
Tang Qingshan frowned and looked at him: "No need."
The second brother knew what was going on as soon as he saw it, so he cooperated and said, "Dad, Xinbao is really tired today. He will probably wake up late tomorrow. He will definitely make a lot of noise in the living room and won't be able to sleep well."
"Yes, Dad," said Brother Tang, "Xinbao is too young, and he is only getting better. If you don't miss yourself, you have to think about Xinbao."
He picked up his sister and put her directly into his father's arms. Tang Qingshan said, "I said it's not necessary!"
Madam Lin said, "If she really comes to make trouble, you will be blamed for everything if you open your mouth. It is far better for me to come forward. You have to think about the children too."
Tang Qingshan was silent for a long time, finally stood up, carried the child out, and looked at his mother, then moved the table, the altar, and the candles into the east wing, so that when he woke up and wanted to eat, he wouldn't have to go out.
He quickly closed the door, and the silly third brother actually noticed it and whispered, "Are you afraid that the old woman will come back and make trouble?"
The second brother raised an eyebrow: "Yes."
"It's okay!" said the third brother, "I'm sleeping in the main room! If that damn old woman dares to come back, call me! I can't kill her!!"
His clenched fists made a crackling sound.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The second brother said, "Okay, then you can sleep on Xinbaoer's bed."
Brother Tang San nodded, took off his shoes and got on the bed. In less than half a minute, he fell asleep.
Over there, Madam Lin just came out, already dressed in black. Brother Tang San asked with a smile, "Didn't Madam come out without any clothes?"
Madam Lin combed her hair, put on her mask carefully, and said as a matter of course: "This dress is not at home."
She put her ear to the wall, listened to the noise in the east room, and said, "I'm going!"
The second brother said, "Be careful."
Madam Lin nodded, slipped out of the door silently, looked around in the night, and rushed out with a tiptoe. Her movements were as light and agile as a civet cat, without making any sound.
In the city,
Mrs. Liu burst into tears, then asked the yamen runners to drag her out, throw her on the ground, and close the vermilion lacquered door.
The onlookers pointed and talked for a while, then gradually dispersed.
Mrs. Liu had lost the energy to cry. She looked around, feeling empty. Only then did she become confused.
The youngest son, whom I had loved all my life, committed a crime and was thrown into jail.
The eldest son, who had been filial all his life, had a falling out with her a long time ago, and the younger son even harmed his family, so now he doesn't care about him anymore.
The second daughter-in-law also left.
The head of the village, the clan leader, and the villagers had all left, leaving only her.
She had been aggressive all her life, always competitive and never willing to give in, but now she was scared and didn't know what to do! !
She was at a loss for a long time, and could only walk towards the village crying.
She was originally in good health, but these days, she has been hanged and beaten several times. Today, she was beaten with ten boards and can't even walk!
He could only limp towards the village, finding a walking stick to support himself halfway. It was already dark when he finally reached the halfway point, crying all the way.
There was no one on the road anymore, she was the only one there. She became frightened and tried desperately to walk faster, but she couldn't go any faster.
Her tears had dried up, and she blew her nose hard and flicked it aside. When she looked up, a black shadow suddenly appeared silently in front of her.
